.DISCUSSION...

Seasonable temperatures continue this afternoon and through much
of next week. Breezy northwest winds will begin to decrease late
this afternoon, becoming light and variable overnight. Minimum
relative humidity values look to remain above critical thresholds,
however the breezy winds could aid in fire spread should one
start.

Sunday winds will be light, becoming southerly by the afternoon.
As mentioned in the previous discussion, rain moves into the
region Monday morning and continues through the day. There is
potential that areas at elevation in southwestern Minnesota may
see some wintry mix to all snow, especially as temperatures begin
to decrease in the evening. Light rain to snow continues into
Tuesday morning.
